BBC Sport's football expert Mark Lawrenson will be making a prediction for all 380 Premier League games this season against a variety of different guests.
Lawro's opponents for this week's Premier League fixtures are comedians Bob Mortimer and Andy Dawson, who are behind the Athletico Mince podcast., external
Mortimer is a Middlesbrough fan, while Dawson supports Sunderland and they decided on their joint prediction for Sunday's Wear-Tees derby by each of them independently choosing how many goals their team would score.
You can make your own predictions now, compare them to Lawro and other fans and try to take your team to the top of the leaderboard by playing the new BBC Sport Predictor game.
